The proporty-ownoers of Wabash avenue, whoto zeal in robullding the desolations of Oot, 9, 1871, was nut surpnssed by that of any othor stroot in tho eity, wore forced, by hoavy intorest and heavier taxes, as thoy fiugored the keys of vaoant stores, vainly socking tevants, to ask why it was that their more fortunute noighbors found prosperous tenants, while their as good or bot- ter buildings were donplnnd. ‘Tho #ix weeka of paving revoaled st once, and to all, tho vouso of Statu strost's prospority und Wabauh avenua's misery ; and, with woudorful unanimity, the properly-ownors on thot avenus 26t Lo work to soouro to thomuolves n Atrect-rail- way, K oompany was organized, charter ohtained and tho consent of sevan.eighth of tho proport: owaors asoured, It was thow disgovored that ln NOVEMBER 30, 174, Novembor, 1600, the Olly of Chicago mads a sol- omn covensnt with the Chicago Oty Ratlwa: Company whoraby for good and valid consid- orationa the city agreod %hat no treck should be Inid by any party on Wabash avenuo without the cougont of the City Rallway Company, Egbort Jamloson, Enq., Clty Attoriiey, in his able opin- fon rondered to the Committeo on Sircots and Alloys on tho 7th of August last, shows this to bo & good, valid, and hinding contract. Tho proporty-ownera alko considerad that to honofit thair property it was necesancy that the proposed lino nbould tap tho lines yow owned and o‘mmtcd by tha City Raitway Company, and draw to itsolf at leant a porlion of the vast travel notw paaning over State atrant ; for a track lond- ing nowhoro and oarrying nobody would bo only & dotriment, Applicution was then made to the City Rail- way Company to construot and operate a lino on Wabaeh nvenus, from Twonty-socond Atroot north, conneoting with the various lines south of tunt street, "That Company, by rosolution -of {ts Board of Dircotors, promptly accepted tho proposition and agroed {n good “faith to build and oporato tho lino upon obtaining tho cousent of the Com- mon Counail, ‘Che Bovon-oighths of the proporty ownors who hind signod in favor of the now Companny im- modintely transforred their potition tn favor of tho City Raflnay.
